Title: Procedes et systemes d'affectation de ressources organisationnelles, avec evaluation des cout et prix de ressources
Inventor: JAMESON JOEL
IPC: G06Q10/00
Filed: 1998-05-04
Abstract: On affecte tous types de ressources à des organisations commerciales, gouvernementales ou à but non lucratif, en évaluant le prix desdites ressources. Un processus de programmation linéaire permet d'affecter les conditions de réalisation liées aux unités de produits. Un processus "conduit de ressources" régit le processus de programmation linéaire, utilise des prix fictifs à deux variantes, et établit des affectations d'ouverture pour transformer en demande réalisée la demande potentielle. On s'appuie sur une perspective de strict coût d'opportunité, et le coût des ressources susceptibles d'être achetées s'entend du coût d'opportunité correspondant à un engagement de trésorerie. Une base de données renferme les éléments suivants : quantités de ressources disponibles, besoins en ressources produits, et demande potentielle sous forme de distribution statistique. Après consultation de la base de données et optimisation, des directives d'affectation sont introduites dans la base de données. On détermine aussi, pour introduction dans ladite base de données, les valeurs marginales (différentielles) des ressources et le coût marginal des produits. Il est possible de parcourir et d'éditer la base de données via l'interface utilisateur graphique spécifiée. D'autres moyens comme la simulation Monte-Carlo et l'établissement de programmes relatifs à l'offre et à la demande facilitent l'analyse et permettent d'appliquer le mode simulation, en interaction avec l'utilisateur, pour mettre au point des stratégies et des tactiques liées à la fourniture et à la tarification des produits ainsi qu'à l'affectation des ressources.
Patent CA-2288614-A1 (CA)
Title: Loop allocation for optimizing compilers
Inventor: BLAINEY ROBERT JAMES
IPC: G06F9/45
Filed: 1999-11-08
Abstract: Loop allocation for optimizing compilers includes the generation of a program dependence graph for a source code segment. Control dependence graph representations of the nested loops, from innermost to outermost, are generated and data dependence graph representations are generated for each level of nested loop as constrained by the control dependence graph. An interference graph is generated with the nodes of the data dependence graph. Weights are generated for the edges of the interference graph reflecting the affinity between statements represented by the nodes joined by the edges. Nodes in the interference graph are given weights reflecting resource usage by the statements associated with the nodes. The interference graph is partitioned using a profitability test based on the weights of edges and nodes and on a correctness test based on the reachability of nodes in the data dependence graph. Code is emitted based on the partitioned interference graph.

Title: Interactive mortgage and loan information and real-time trading system
Inventor: PAYANKANNUR SURESH
IPC: G06Q40/00
Filed: 1998-09-11
Abstract: The invention provides a method and system for trading loans in real time by making loan applications, such as home mortgage loan applications, and placing them up for bit by a plurality of potential lenders. A transaction server maintains a database of pending loan applications and their statuses; each party to the loan can search and modify that database consistent with their role in the transaction, by request to the server from a client device identified with their role. Brokers at a broker station can add loan applications, can review the status of loan applications entered by that broker, are notified of lender's bids on their loans, and can accept bids by lenders. Lenders at a lender station can search the database for particular desired types of loans, can sort selected loans by particular desired criteria, can bid on loan applications, and are notified when their bids are accepted. Broker stations, lender stations and the transaction server can be coupled using multiple access methods, including Internet, Intranet, or dialup or leased communication lines.

Patent CA-2308108-A1 (CA)
Inventor: NICHOLLS CHARLES TREMLETT
IPC: H03B5/18
Filed: 2000-05-10
Abstract: There is a manufacturing limit on how small ceramic coaxial resonators can be produced, which leads to a limit on the frequency of resonance for these resonators. One technique to double the effective frequency of a ceramic coaxial resonator is to couple each end of a resonator to a Colpitts oscillator, the oscillators being balanced and out-of-phase by 180°. During operation, the resonator is effectively divided in half with a virtual ground forming in the center. This allows a single resonator to operate as two resonators of half the original size. Hence, the oscillation frequency for each of these balanced oscillators is doubled when compared to the frequency of similar oscillators that have separate ceramic coaxial resonators of similar size.      This technique expands the range of use for a ceramic coaxial resonator so that, if implemented within a push-push architecture and if used along side a subharmonically pumped mixer that allows for doubling of the local oscillator frequency, the maximum oscillation frequency is increased to 40 GHz. This frequency range allows ceramic coaxial resonators to be used for high frequency applications such as LMDS.

Abstract: A receiver, comprising an adaptive filter, performs blind equalization using a modified form of the constant modulus algorithm (CMA). This modified form of CMA is referred to as symbol CMA (SCMA). SCMA utilizes both the constant R and the sliced symbols, ~ n, in performing blind equalization. The constant R is statistically related to the sliced symbols, ~ n. The adaptive filter is a two-filter structure. The SCMA  blind equalization technique reduces the rate of occurrence of a diagonal solution.

Title: Charge minerale modifiee pour matieres thermodurcissables
Inventor: FREEMAN GARY M
IPC: C09C1/42
Filed: 1998-12-22
Abstract: L'invention se rapporte à des charges minérales modifiées provenant soit de kaolinton à particules grossières, soit d'hydroxyde d'aluminium (ATH) à particules grossières, qui s'avèrent particulièrement utiles dans les polymères thermodurcissables en tant que charges de viscosité pour pâtes. L'invention concerne un procédé de traitement consistant à utiliser des combinaisons à pourcentages en poids spécifiques d'un silane et d'un alcool aliphatique à chaîne longue. Le traitement de l'argile peut également consister à utiliser de manière auxiliaire un tensioactif en petites quantités, afin d'émulsionner dans de l'eau les composants de traitement à base de silane et d'alcool aliphatique, soit individuellement soit en tant que mélange de co-émulsion avant leur addition à l'argile. Le tensioactif, qui est de préférence un tensioactif non ionique présentant un rapport hydrophile-lipophile compris entre 12 et 18, sert à traiter uniformément toutes les surfaces des particules d'argile avec la combinaison de traitement à base de silane/alcool. Les argiles à particules grossières présentant un intérêt particulier pour la présente invention sont celles ayant une particule de diamètre aérodynamique moyen supérieur ou égal à 3,0 microns, tandis que les charges d'ATH à particules grossières présentant un intérêt pour l'invention, sont celles ayant une aire de surface BET inférieure à 5,0 m?2¿/g. Les argiles et l'ATH qui subissent ce traitement à base de silane/alcool présentent des avantages uniques de réduction de la viscosité dans les polymères thermodurcissables qu'il est impossible d'obtenir en employant un seul de ces additifs de traitement, en quelque quantité que ce soit. Cette caractéristique de faible viscosité permet d'utiliser les produits minéraux traités en fortes concentrations dans des composés thermodurcissables, en tant que matières de charges, ce qui s'avère avantageux pour réduire les coûts et/ou pour conférer certaines propriétés influençant la qualité desdits composés, telles que le renforcement physique, le lissé de surface et l'ininflammabilité de composites.
